2010 Rookie Watch

09-14-2010, 01:53 PM

How did your teams rookies perform in week 1?

The Texans top pick Kareem Jackson is the only Texans rookie with significant playing time this week. Against the Colts, 4 solo tackes and was average in pass coverage against Peyton. Not a great 1st game, but not bad considering the competition.

I'm still so very happy that I called Alualu going in the first round. Muahaha.

But yeah, Ravens played without Kindle or Cody last night. But from my own observations of other teams, some of what I came away with...

- Devin McCourty is going to be a stud. He looked great on Sunday.

- Kyle Wilson got abused by Boldin, but he showed some promise and alot of his mistakes are on Rex Ryan. Leaving a rookie in single coverage with no help over the top is never a good idea, especially on a receiver like Boldin.

The APS is strong in this one.

Tears for Fears is better than whatever it is you happen to be thinking about right now.

So long story short, nothing at all. On the bright side, Jay Cutler looked pretty good, and we gave up our 1st rounder to get him. Does that count?

Brilliant letting one of Scott Pioli's henchmen have his own team to ruin. One of the premier GM jobs in the NFL and it gets handed to a stupid **** who makes three facepalm moves for every good one. Awesome. Just like handing a new Mercedes to a 16 year old girl who's already been in three wrecks.

Javier Arenas looked very good as another return man, almost breaking another punt return TD, and decent as a nickle CB

Eric Berry looked like a rookie in coverage. Granted it was his first game, it was national tv and he was defending the best TE in football. He made a couple really good tackles and was always around the ball. He will learn from this and only get better.

Moeaki had 3 Rec for 21 Yds and an important TD on a play action pass.

The Chiefs probably had the most productive rookies in Week 1.

Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez each made big plays for the Pats. McCourty was on the field a lot and didn't make any big plays, but didn't look terrible. Jermaine Cunningham was in there a bit but didn't do anything special.

As for the future OROY and DROY, Dexter McCluster and Greg Hardy, well yeah that pretty much says it all.
